oil on panel 18 x 18 x 1.5" Through my paintings, I’ve become attentive to the splendid drama of my everyday world. How the wind can create a ripple in a pond, a flock of birds descending on a field, or how sunlight can illuminate the side of a building are small miracles that happen all around us. In my latest series of oil paintings called Old Souls, I have paid homage to the trees I’m familiar with as I progress through my daily life and work. I thought of these paintings more as portraits of friends than as landscape paintings. I believe nature is intertwined with our lives and has an awareness of our human activity. I find this feeling most prevalent with trees. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

Look Up and Listen to the Starssmall marble headSize: 8 x 6 x 6Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.This small 2022 marble sculpture is an invitation for stargazing. More than half of the world's population lives in cities so we forget and overlook the innate relationship with the Universe. Beyond light pollution, there exists above our heads the same night sky, the same Milky Way, the same stars and galaxies that make no difference whatsoever between humans on Earth who might, if they wish to do so, look up and learn more about the sound waves of stars.

In my work, I have at times carved female figures in place of traditional male figures, sometimes with animal attributes, like horns. Nyami Nyami shows here the face of a woman, with a snake tightly wrapped around her body. She bears the name of an African river god portrayed traditionally as a snake. The construction of the Kariba Dam on the Zambezi River in the 1950’s caused the forced resettlement of an entire population under the British rule. Today, this piece is a call for environmental protection. It is meant to bring attention to the many indigenous sites that are threatened by pipelines, mining and human greed throughout the world.

stone 20 x 9 x 9" Bodhisattva embodies two defining aspects of my life. It reflects my earlier interest as a Buddhist scholar and my concern for the environment in our global effort to recycle and reuse unwanted materials. The piece is made out of an old building stone discarded during renovation and other salvaged items from Community Forklift, a non-profit reuse center in the DC area. Vowing to promote spiritual awakening and save all beings, the bodhisattva aspires to enlightenment for the good of others.

gold painted marble heads on wood stand 7 x 18 x 12" Two lines of thought influence my work: The prehistoric Neolithic Period and Buddhist figures. I used leftover stone and reclaimed wood to create both landscapes. Gold paint is the latest addition to my work. One landscape tells the story of Venus of Willendorf, whom I imagine being a female direct carver standing tall among her self-made stone sculptures. In the other piece, I created the burial ground of four parts that make up a whole: the self, the person, the living soul, and the being reunited in their resting place. The four selves are a recurrent theme in my work.

Marble 26 x 13 x 23"I work on the stone directly. Memories feed my inspiration. Those of past and present studies and travels around the world. Direct carving means letting the stone guide you. It is an act of faith that aims to bring balance to my mind and body as I look forward to satisfying my insatiable curiosity. The Universe, I see, reveals itself by expressing itself and knows itself through every bit of experience, and so is my work as a female sculptor, only limited in the process by the material circumstances I encounter: the quality, size, and veins of the marble.

photograph of a transparent collage on a light box 11 x 14" I fold the paper in half, pick up my scissors, and begin to cut. I move my scissors to shape women of various shapes and sizes. I arrange and rearrange and look for backgrounds, and then click-click, I have a photo. Next I work on variations, exploring where the graphic wants to go, revealing hidden layers. Colorful women in abstract shapes and light illustrate women’s inner strength and balance. Every time I pick up my scissors and begin anew I am excited to see who emerges. I have a parade of paper cutouts of women clamoring to be heard. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

Inner and Outer Strength Sculpture: Folded Archival Inkjet Print of Collages Size of Piece: 8 x 6 x 6 I like coming up with new and different ways to see the world. Being open to the creative process is what my art making is about. Innovation, thinking outside the box, and trying to see things anew is what I share with others through my art. I work on a light-box with translucent paper and create series of figures that I then fold to make three dimensional sculptures. Blood Sisters: Much of women’s lives can be marked by blood. We start our menstrual cycles as teenagers, and our blood feeds our babies within our wombs. The mitochondrial DNA is matrilineal and is passed from mother to daughter through the generations. Dance for Joy: Active Happiness-Moving our bodies-Excited for life-Abundance! Inner and Outer Peace: We need time alone to regroup and gather our thoughts…Quiet time...

Manifest Aluminum Print Size of Piece: 20 x 16 x 25 I like photographing translucent collages on a light box and enhancing the images to come up with new ways of seeing things. I started this practice when checking in with a therapeutic light box for my seasonal affective disorder. I started exploring ways of arranging shapes and colors with layers. The light holds in the finished work and the colors are jewel-toned. 'Energy in Motion' is about finding our power. Orange is a strong color and rules the naval center. Find your energy and move it. Manifest what you desire. Aluminum prints work well with this work. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Squaring the Circle- Structure is dancing with the intuitive, both are needed. The expression "squaring the circle" is sometimes used as a metaphor for trying to do the impossible. A women’s work is never done. Mindfulness is key. If you say that someone squares the circle, you mean that they bring together two things, which are normally thought to be so different that they cannot exist together. Mathematically, it has to do with irrational and rational numbers and mathematicians have been working on it since ancient Greece. A woman’s world today is complicated. The circle and spiral are in many ways more home than the square, but we live in a square world of houses and books and cities.

Escape from Samsara Colored Pencil on Paper Size of Piece: 17 x 14 Framed Size: 25 x 22 My creative process is an intuitive journey of exploration and storytelling, rooted in memory, emotion, and transformation. I weave personal and collective narratives into evocative works that explore resilience, connection, and growth. The feminine essence is central to my work, reflected in organic forms, symbolism, and layered textures. Inspired by my mother’s Puerto Rican heritage, the island’s vibrancy pulses through my compositions, carrying its warmth, energy, and spirit.

Exit Neon Photography Size: 11 x 14 As a mixed media artist, I have spent years exploring and combining various materials to express the intricacies of human memory, emotion, and perception. My work often bridges 21st-century Modernism with the new realism movement, capturing not what is seen, but what is felt and remembered. The intuitive realism at the heart of my paintings has led me on a journey to explore photography as a new medium in my artistic practice. Although my roots are in painting, I began developing my photography work in earnest just last year, bringing with it a fresh dimension to my exploration of light, color, and texture. Photography allows me to capture fleeting moments, unveiling hidden beauty in the everyday. It is an evolution of my mixed media approach, focusing on the delicate interplay between light and shadow, abstraction, and the way our eyes perceive the world around us. In my photographs, I seek to express not just the subject, but the emotional and sensory experience of the moment. Each image is an invitation to see beyond the surface, to find resonance in the seemingly ordinary, and to embrace the energy that exists in the unseen. Through photography, I continue to challenge myself and my artistic practice, using the camera as another tool to reveal the truths that lie beneath the surface. I am excited by the endless possibilities this new medium offers and look forward to sharing more of this evolving work with the world.

Photograph 30 x 20 in. w/frame 34 x 24 in. Red Descent: Descenso Rojo is a visual narrative exploring life and identity through my mother’s Puerto Rican culture. This photograph showcases a hibiscus, the national flower, viewed through red glass that forms an eye-like aperture, symbolizing a birth canal. The red vase, a sentimental gift from my mother on Valentine’s Day, adds personal depth to the piece. The vivid hues echo the passion and intensity of the island, while the glass emulates waves of the sea, and flowing blood, capturing the essence of both strength and resilience. The flower’s human-like figure embodies the journey of birth and rebirth, reflecting a profound interplay of chaos and tranquility. The eye-like structure suggests awareness and introspection, inviting a view through a lens of rich heritage and personal growth. This image celebrates the enduring spirit and beauty emerging from transformative experiences. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Under the UmbrellaSize: 13.5 x 15" In Under the Umbrella, a crowned man and woman stand beneath an American flag, completely oblivious to the chaos below. Stained hands claw at her, a neon pink vital sign flickers beneath them, but neither seem concerned. Handcuffed together, she extends a green heart—her life force—while he lazily swipes at it with one hand, too distracted to care. Her face is being sawed, a nod to self-reinvention and erasure, while her leg fuses into a television, the ultimate surrender to media control. She wears fishnets, playing the role expected of her, while he drifts around in his power polka dot boxers, blissfully clueless. His foot dangles over an erupting volcano, but he’s too indifferent to notice destruction. Despite the comic absurdity, they remain under the umbrella —wrapped in privilege and illusion, perfectly safe… until the ground disappears beneath them.

Collage 15 x 11 in. I love collage. I collect paper, cut it up, and move the bits around until an image comes together. With no idea in mind, it’s just play & discovery, with a surprise reward at the end! “Girlfriends” reflects new techniques I was trying out: painting and printing on wallpaper scraps and deli paper, and, experimenting with “faux” encaustics: transferring an image onto matte Dura-lar Mylar and adhering it image side down, producing a translucent, beeswax effect. Using people as subject matter is also new. A friend had given me a packet of old photos, and immediately, they spoke to me.

Almost a Square of Red Lines
Size: 11 x 11
Framed Size: 15 x 15
Cheryl Levin’s current minimal ink drawings on paper use repetition to bind herself to the creative process. Using dip pen or brush, each line she applies is akin to a sentence in a letter making paragraphs on a page; each drawn line follows the next creating a correspondence with her inner and outer self. Almost a Square of Red Lines is part of multiple series of Levin's as part of her growth and transformation from major life changes thus her work is often viewed as landscapes of lives' journeys or life paths. Here, the whole square - not quite filled in - reflects what is left out of the landscape of our lives. The papers' edge and the ink absorption become part of the fragile journey.

Small Work With A Dot On The Leftink on rice paperLevin’s ink drawings use dip pen on paper. Her undulating lines contain stops and starts, deliberate accidents, ink bleeding into the paper fibers, one line at a time in a repeated pattern. In the artist’s words, “Repetition is a mediating factor between things that came before and the present.” From a distance, we see a whole shape. Up close, however, the series of thinly drawn and repetitive lines ripple from one to another, creating connections to natural phenomena, such as, the rings on a tree, the whirls on a fingertip, water patterns, or the markings of an ancient cuneiform.

acrylic, collage on canvas 24 x 24 x 2" My Portals are acrylic, mixed media on canvas. They represent openings to opportunities, the unknown, which seem promising, beautiful, enticing. Like Native American "dream catcher," portals offer a landscape of positive energies surrounded by edges that can snag and encumber the viewer as they reach for the magic in the center. Portals reflect opportunities for a quiet, meditative, and peaceful space encumbered by unknown obstacles, dangers, and barriers. One must focus on the safety and quietness in the portal's center, while also navigating the broken, seen and unseen impediments that may interfere with the journey forward.

Ultimately, "Pieces of Me" seeks to resonate with others, fostering contemplation and encouraging them to embrace their own paths toward healing and renewal.

The genesis of my piece titled Sunset Rays lies in a moment of serendipity driving along the highway. The sunlight pierced through the clouds in a manner that felt transcendent. Aware of the fleeting nature of such scenes, I was compelled to capture and preserve it as a painting. I find inspiration in the natural world, translating its essence into art using soft pastels. My creative process extends beyond simple observation; it involves capturing the vibrant interplay of colors, the flowing elegance of lines, and dynamic arrangement of shapes within the realm of light and shadow. Whether it's the ordinary or the extraordinary, I endeavor to encapsulate the ephemeral beauty I witness.

When I'm observing something, I'm not simply noticing the object or the landscape before me, I see the dance of colors in color, the lyricism of line, and the play of shapes through value and space. We are surrounded by sublime beauty in the mundane as much as in the extraordinary, and it's this transitory beauty that I am compelled to capture. Aiming to make my work accessible and easy to understand, I prefer to create representational work.

Works on Paper 36 x 36 in. This piece, Windblown, is part of a series called Transitions. When I started this series I was touched by the lament of “women of a certain age”, feeling that they were invisible, overlooked, and insignificant. This series is my attempt to visually capture this time in a woman’s life as an ending as well as a new beginning as the sunflower emits its seeds and begins again. The subject of this work is an aged, dried sunflower. I used Chinese ink to explore the transient nature of life and the strength of that transience.
